100th Anniversary of WWI Exhibit

November 11, 2018, will mark the end of the 100th Anniversary of World War One. An exhibit will run from May 12-November 14th at the Chappell Hill Historical Museum titled, Into the Raging Storm: Texas in the Great War.

Experience the story of the fighting men and women of Washington County, who left Central Texas for the war-torn trenches and battlefields of France. They stood up to gas, artillery, disease, and even bad food…and returned to Texas to tell the tale.

The Brenham Heritage Museum and the Chappell Hill Historical Society Museum have partnered to bring this multi-media and interactive experience to Texans young and old.

Brenham/Washington County is in a scenic and historic region located halfway between Houston and Austin on Hwy. 290, renowned as the “Birthplace of Texas.” A great get-away with over 40 bed & breakfasts, 9 hotels, 4 wineries, historic Downtown Brenham, antiques shops galore, botanical garden attractions, live theatre, museums and so much more!
